Vehicle Care

{

Caution

Wheel covers will not fit on the
vehicle's compact spare. If you try
to put a wheel cover on the
compact spare, the cover or the
spare could be damaged.

Storing a Flat or Spare Tire
and Tools

{

Warning

Storing a jack, a tire, or other
equipment in the passenger
compartment of the vehicle could
cause injury. In a sudden stop or
collision, loose equipment could
strike someone. Store all these in
the proper place.

1. Turn the wrench

counterclockwise to remove the
fastener.

2. Replace the fastener with the

one provided in the foam.

3. Turn the wrench clockwise to

tighten the fastener.

4. Replace the foam, jack and

tools, and the tire.

5. Turn the retainer nut clockwise

to secure the tire.

6. Place the floor cover on the

wheel.

To store the compact spare tire, use
the shorter mounting bolt.

The compact spare is for temporary
use only. Replace the compact
spare tire with a full-size tire as
soon as you can.

Compact Spare Tire

{

Warning

Driving with more than one
compact spare tire at a time could
result in loss of braking and
handling. This could lead to a
crash and you or others could be
injured. Use only one compact
spare tire at a time.

If this vehicle has a compact spare
tire, it was fully inflated when new;
however, it can lose air over time.
Check the inflation pressure
regularly. It should be 420 kPa
(60 psi).
